Ashburner Francis, a prominent engineering consultancy firm, has recently made some significant changes to its leadership structure. The company has appointed four new Directors, marking a pivotal moment in its history. This development comes as the firm celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2026, a testament to its enduring success and the trust it has built with its clients over the years.
The newly appointed Directors include John Kereczko, Clinton Walker, Neil Scott, and Michael Heaslip. These individuals bring a wealth of experience and expertise to their roles, having worked closely with the firm for several years. Their promotions are a recognition of their dedication, skills, and the value they have added to the company's operations.
John Kereczko and Clinton Walker, based in Toowoomba, have been instrumental in providing engineering consultancy services for a diverse range of projects, including mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and energy-efficiency initiatives. Their promotion to the Director level is a testament to their leadership capabilities and the impact they have had on the firm's growth.
In Townsville, Neil Scott joins the ranks, working alongside long-term Director Wayne Benson. This addition further strengthens the firm's presence in the region and underscores its commitment to delivering high-quality services across various locations.
The Northern Territory office also witnessed a leadership transition. Director Graham Heaslip, a long-standing member of the team, has decided to step down from his senior management role and hand over the reins to Michael Heaslip. This strategic move ensures a smooth transition for the firm's clients in the Northern Territory, with Michael maintaining a strong connection to both Darwin and the Brisbane office.
